A Happy Heart!

I have a VERY happy heart today. Charley and I decided to our boy :) I guess we will be stocking up on benadryl. I mean look at those sweet innocent eyes......

A Broken Heart

My heart is broken. After many, many conversations, tears, lists, ect....we are looking for a new loving home for Tank. We were not able to adjust to him. Please let me know if you or anyone you know is looking for an adorable, precious puppy. It makes me sad to have to blog today :(

My Sweet Boys

We are all adjusting still to our new life with Tank. Charley believes he is allergic to Tank. At first, he was sure we would have to get rid of him. After a few tears and sweet puppy eyes, he is trying to adjust. We love our new addition to our family so much. He keeps us on our toes, literally! He can already 'sit' and 'come' on command, and working on the 'fetch' and 'stay'. (about 50%) Potty training is going well, some days are better than others, but overall good. I'm sure there will be many, many posts and pictures of him.

Kisses for Charley

For being a kitty person, I'm becoming a dog lover too. What would we do without them???

Let's NOT forget about my first love.....MAX!!! He has come so far with the adjustment. He knows now that Tank is here to stay and can't get on the couch, HA! Max hangs out with us most of the time snoozing. He even will eat by Tank! My hearts still melts when snuggles with me each night :)

I just love his eyes

Sum, sum, summa' time

It's been a busy, busy, busy summer. We have been busy with Tank, (I'm talking 3 hours of sleep a day), family visiting, Ranger games, and summer school. Here are a few pic's I've snapped along the way....

1st Hospital Visit

This whole puppy thing....whew! Yesterday Tank had his 1st trip to the vet/hospital. We noticed a little knot under his right shoulder on Saturday. By Monday it had doubled in size. I took him to visit Charley at the fire station and we decided it needed to be looked at. So after waiting for 3 HOURS, I saw the vet. He had a swollen lymph node due to a respiratory infection. He is on antibotics for a week. I mean it really is like having a newborn. BUT he is the cutest, sweetest little baby I've ever seen! I just love him :)

Oh and Max is starting to come around. Praise God! No more hissing or growling. He actually comes out to eat and sits on the couch.....that is when Tank is asleep. Hey, we're making progress!!

WOW

We have been waiting months for this eventful night. The opening to new Cowboy Stadium and the George Straight concert. It was even better than we imagined. As soon as you walked in, I just got chills....I was in awe of the stadium. Then we got the concert of a lifetime. Blake Shelton, Reba and the King of Country....George Straight. I enjoyed getting to spend time with David and Cynda, Bryan and Ginger. We had a BLAST!

Welcome to the Family

TANK has arrived at the Scamperino house. After 6 weeks of waiting we finally got to bring him home. My oh my has our life changed and turned UPSIDE down! The first 24 hours have come and gone and we just love him. Max on the other hand...YIKES! He has not come out of the bedroom or closet, he growls and hisses. Although, today seemed better. He slept with us last night and actually came out for a few brief seconds. Tank slept in the crate. He's a sweet, silly boy. He loves to chew and play, then crash and nap. I hope he and Max can become best of buds one day, for now we just hope they can be in the same room. So, many stories are proably heading this way!
